Perhaps sometimes the people in the countries whose sweat labour is exploited to benefit a few local mandarins and those of us in the first world who are pleased to pay cheap for shoes, clothes and electronic gear... perhaps, just perhaps, some of those exploited people feel a bit resentful to have their miserable lives described as "Aid".

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
